“Fantastic Nursery with Caring and Supportive Staff.

My twins started at Heaton park view nursery in September 2024 in the Wise Owls room, and I couldn’t be happier with our experience. From day one, they have truly thrived in this nurturing and supportive environment.

The staff are incredibly kind, understanding, and caring. They take the time to get to know each child as an individual, ensuring that their unique needs are met. It’s clear that they are passionate about what they do, and their dedication has made such a positive impact on my children’s development and happiness.

What I appreciate most is how they not only support my kids but also make me feel so welcome and at home. Their communication is excellent, and I always feel reassured knowing my children are in such good hands.

I highly recommend Heaton park view nursery to any parent looking for a warm, supportive, and high-quality early years setting. Thank you to all the amazing staff for everything you do!”

“My little boy has attended this setting for the last 2 years. The girls who work in the rooms are incredible. They know the children inside and out. They care for the children as if they are their own and the personal touches they create for each child’s planning week activities is fantastic. My child has found this nursery a nurturing place where he has really progressed with both his learning and friendships and he loves every second. It is the staff that make this nursery. Every staff member knows my child inside and out and us as parents even if they don’t work in the same room that he attends. They all make such an effort to greet and interact with my little boy every time we step through the door. It is an all inclusive, warm, fun environment that I would recommend to anybody. So much so my other little boy will also be joining this coming May. The peace of mind you have going to work dropping your children off at a place that they are content and thriving is priceless to me.”

“My 3 year old son has been at Heaton park view since 8 months old and I’ve never had a bad word to say about it. He has the best time, has made lovely friends and has a great relationship with all the ladies every room he’s been in. He has developed so much and a lot of that is down to nursery. They have always treated his food intolerances and asthma with great care and I’ve never worried or been concerned about him in their care. Thank you ladies for your commitment and love for my boy! Highly recommend for any new mums and dads choosing their nursery.”

“Heaton park view is an outstanding nursery! The staff are lovely and my children have so much fun and learn so much whilst in their care! They consistently go above and beyond. I highly recommend this nursery – it’s definitely the best in the area!”

“This nursery is absolutely incredible. It all starts with the fantastic and highly competent manager, she is not only a lovely person but also a true fountain of knowledge, an inspiring role model, and an exceptional team leader who clearly brings out the best in her staff. The entire team is outstanding, caring, dedicated, and genuinely invested in the children’s well-being and development.

We have been part of this wonderful nursery since my daughter was just 11 months old, and now, at 2.5yrs she continues to thrive. Despite moving house, I still make the 2 hour daily journey to Heaton Park View because I know there is simply no better place for my child. My older daughter also attends the holiday club and absolutely loves it! The level of care, warmth, and professionalism here is unparalleled. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough, it is truly exceptional in every way!”
